The Flying Saucer weathervane
featured in the photo above was made in copper with optional gold leaf accents
on aliens and UFO beam. A piece of red glass was used to create the UFO beam
down to the aliens. The UFO has landed on your rooftop!
Because our
weathervanes are made to individual order, we can personalize them according to
our customer’s wishes.
You can see that the copper used
to create this Starship weathervane has not yet begun to weather. This copper will first turn
a deep, rich chocolate brown color. The gold leaf accents will stand out in nice
contrast with the darkened metal. Eventually the copper will turn a lovely
greenish color, similar to the Statue of Liberty. You can actually see a similar
patina in the weathered copper roof of the cupola below the weathervane. Even
when the Griffin eventually turns green, much of the gold accenting should still
be there, just as shinny as ever, and continue to offer a nice contrast in
color. You can see this contrast between the gold leafed torch and Liberty’s
hand (thumbnails below). This natural patina weathervanes take on over
time is highly prized by collectors as each weathervane develops it own unique patination based on location and environmental influences.
